Flopsey Valentine

Boy was I tired last night..after chaperoning a dance at my dd's school Friday night and then having 8 kids at our house for my son's 6th birthday party yesterday---yipes! My husband thought it would be a good idea to unwind with a nice movie--so he purchased DARK KNIGHT. Well, for those of you who have seen it, you know that it is not a relaxing movie at all. After the moview was over--my hands were clammy from being so anxious! Oh well--at least he let me sleep in today!

Here is a little card I squeezed in during my daughter's nap. Seems like crafting time is very limited these days but -- 'tis the season!

I stamped the image and then cut it out and colored the bunny part. I then cut out a section where the hot chocolate mug was so that I could turn this into a cute Valentine. I punched a heart and slid it right into his arms. I popped the top half of his body up over his legs to make it a bit more realistic.

My favorite part of this card is the Flower Softthat I used on his hat, scarf and gloves. At first, I was hesitant to use it on this image because I didn't know if I could get it to adhere to such a small area. But it worked and it was simple. I love the texture it adds.

OTHER NEWS:Did you know that TOMORROW is the 15th of the month??? You know what that means---a new dirty dozen gallery on Splitcoaststampers. Woohoo! This month Splitcoaststampers is giving everyone a holiday gift---the dirty dozen gallery will be open to EVERYONE! If you've ever wanted to know what the big, fantastic, creative deal was with the dirty dozen, don't forget to check it out. It's a great way to support this site and get some top notch inspiration too!

Now...about that movie. Oh help me; occasionally we allow our children to see PG-13 movies with us...yep; I was dumb enough to take them to this one. OK, I'm one really dumb mom sometimes. They loved it but I was RAVING that the movie should be rated R when we left!!!! OH MY GOSH...

Cammie what an adorable card and I love the flower soft added to it! I now have been enabled and need to add some of that to my shopping list! :) Glad you got to sleep in today....sounds like you definitely needed it! :)Hugs~ Kim
